We were blown away by the positive response to Shotgun Developer Day at SIGGRAPH this year! So many of you reached out to tell us how useful the classes were for getting a grasp on Shotgun development and extending your Toolkit knowledge that we've decided to re-present the day as a series of webinars for anyone who was unable to make it out to Vancouver and attend live.

The intended audience for these courses varies: some are for advanced Shotgun/Toolkit API users; others are for people new to Shotgun development.

Here are the details:

INTRODUCTION TO SHOTGUN DEVELOPMENT

In this webinar, we go over common production scenarios and how to address them with Shotgun’s various APIs and integrations, then dive into some examples of developing with Shotgun APIs.

Learn how to take over integrations and make them do what you want. Out of the box Shotgun integrations with products like Maya, Nuke, Houdini, and Photoshop allow for basic software launching and file sharing, but their true power is unleashed once you take control of the configuration and provide a custom directory structure and hooks to automate more of the data flow in your studio.

Learn how to control how integrations behave and harness the power of the Toolkit platform to make building a pipeline easier. We will show you best practices for source control and cloud-based deployment of your pipeline as well as dive into app building and how to use Toolkit’s standard frameworks for rapidly designing UIs and handling Shotgun data. Lastly, we’ll demo the Autodesk Forge ecosystem and how this can be integrated with Shotgun and Toolkit.
